ROFL! I set up a new account, and realized my old one was still active and had to do the following:
  • double click on the World Community Grid or BOINC icon in your system tray and then select "Advanced View" (if not already on Advanced View)
  • go to your "projects" tab and click on World Community Grid an then from the left hand menu select "Detach"
  • go to menu's at the top of your screen and select Tools -> Attach to Project
  • this will bring up a panel that asks you to enter in a project URL. Please select World Community Grid: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org (Note they are not in alpha order)
  • enter the member name that you want to contribute under and the appropriate password and finish
  • click again on your "projects" tab and verify that the correct member name now appears under "Account"
But it would be best to integrate both teams, I think. OTOH, I know accounts can not be merged, so...

Here's the team that shows up when I log in: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/te...mId=1V463QK3S1

Ah, I see what might have happened. My username on WCG is different than the one I use on the rest of BOINC. I might need to mess around with my settings. We'll figure it out!
